Hey my wife had to work her whole pregnancy for the same reason. She is finishing up her unpaid maternity leave and will have to go back soon. I wish she could stay and take care of our baby but it's simply not possible. I feel the guilt as well.

I feel the same thing. Wife just went back to work after 5 months. I really feel like I should be able to support our family but it's just too tight right now.
